Do you have to use all the burners on a gas grill?

What is a grill burner?

Should you let a new grill burn?
Never use a grill with even a small leak. Clean away dust, oil, adhesives, coatings, and other gunk that may have accumulated on your BBQ grill at the factory or the store by burning it for 20 to 30 minutes before the first use. Turn off the grill and allow it to cool.

How long does it take to season a new grill?
Ignite the grill and heat for 16 minutes until the oil burns off or the grates begin to smoke. The shiny finish should turn dark brown or bronze. The darker and more seasoned the grates become, the hotter and more evenly they will cook.
How often should you season your grill?
Seasoning your stainless steel and cast iron cooking grids is something that you should do as soon as your grill is put together before you put it away for the season (not that you do ’cause who doesn’t grill all year?), and at least every 4 months or so. It should be part of your grill maintenance routine.
